Knowing my heart Wit is a quiet, cruel movie. It is almost Emma's one-man show, from the babbling children, to the resolute university professors, to the same wood-like patients, and finally the still life on the hospital bed.

Emma is left-handed and hadn't noticed before. The beginning of the film is full of blurred backgrounds, and the first clear image is the doctor's face that suddenly flashes.

As a person who was almost killed by Western medicine, this film caught my heart. It deeply portrays all kinds of anti-humanity and zero dignity in contemporary Western medicine treatment, and treats people as completely machines;

It also reflects some problems:

1. The dilemma of cancer treatment:...

As an excellent and rigorous professor of English literature, Vivian Bearing, a single middle-aged woman suffering from cancer, her life in the hospital opened up to us.       Due to the change from Margaret Edson's drama, the main body of the film is basically supported by Vivian Bearing's...

Pompa mortis magis terret, quam mors ipsa (It is the accompaniments of death that are frightful rather than death itself). — Francis Bacon watched "Wit" in the ethics class of the Faculty of Medicine of Peking University. The clinical workers in the film did not fulfill the obligation of informed...

After reading it, tears kept streaming, but the thoughts and feelings that suddenly came to my mouth could not be described at all. This is a topic of life and death, I...
